Every year, graduates from the College of Letters & Science enter the workforce and begin to contribute thousands of dollars to their local, state, and national economies. They bring the skills and knowledge they gained at UW-Milwaukee to their jobs, along with their ambitions and fresh perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article series, we highlight some of the recent Letters & Science alumni who have found fulfilling roles in their chosen fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Name: <\/strong>Ellie Fix<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major: <\/strong>Conservation & Environmental Science (CES)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graduation Year<\/strong>: 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Job:<\/strong> Animal Nutrition Assistant at Walt Disney World<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An adult elephant can eat up to 600 pounds of food per day. Rhinos and hippos can put away up 100 pounds of food in a day, and gorillas typically consume 40-50 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when you have a bunch of those animals living in one place \u2013 say, in Walt Disney World\u2019s Animal Kingdom \u2013 you need a lot of people to help feed those animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

51ÁÔÆæ conservation & environmental science alum Ellie Fix is one of those people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fix is an animal nutrition assistant, responsible for prepping thousands of pounds of vegetables, fruit, hay, meat, and vitamins each day to feed the animals that roam Walt Disney World. She works alongside a small team of other nutrition assistants, who also help deliver the food around the park and wash all <\/em>of the empty dishes that come back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYour 10-hour shift could be washing dishes all day,\u201d Fix laughed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fix grew up in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, and chose 51ÁÔÆæ because it was close to home and for its engineering program. Early on, however, she switched her major to CES because she\u2019s always loved the outdoors and animals. She thought the program might be a better fit for her than engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was. Fix thrived in her CES classes. Her favorite was a course on ichthyology, though her class on amphibians and reptiles was a close second. While she took classes, she got some hands-on experience as a volunteer at the aquarium in Discovery World. She also worked in food service to earn extra money while she was going to school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Fix graduated in December of 2021, she found a job in 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Student Excellence and Talent center connecting students with job opportunities. She enjoyed the work but soon realized that while she was helping students achieve what they wanted to do, she wasn\u2019t achieving what she <\/em>wanted to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThen Disney released their \u2018Magic of Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom<\/a>\u2019 show, and I was like, oh \u2013 I could maybe do that as a career,\u201d Fix recalled. \u201cI didn\u2019t think I\u2019d actually end up here, which is wild.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before starting her current role, Fix was a safari guide in Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom. Photo courtesy of Ellie Fix.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

She applied for and was chosen for an internship as a conservation education presenter in Disney’s Wilderness Explorer program. When that ended, she started working as a Kilimanjaro safari guide in the Animal Kingdom and was hired to her current position in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think the combination of managing a restaurant and having all of the animal care experience really got me to where I am,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s because, in essence, Fix is working at a restaurant, but one that serves animals instead of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re the meal preppers for all of the animals in Animal Kingdom. We also work in the aquarium over at Epcot, and we (feed) all of the animals for Animal Kingdom Lodge. \u2026 We have different aviaries. We have a farmyard. \u2026 There\u2019s also the ectotherm team that (cares for) different insects and invertebrates,\u201d Fix explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She and her coworkers arrive at work at 5 a.m. to begin prepping the literal tons of food that the animals need. There are different stations where they cook up the \u201corders.\u201d The diets are determined by animal nutritionists, who work closely with Disney\u2019s veterinarians and animal care teams to ensure the animals are healthy. The work is important not only to ensure that Disney World\u2019s guests have a magical experience, but also because the company is involved in several wildlife conservation efforts, such as sea turtle and manatee rehabilitation. Seeing animals in the Animal Kingdom may inspire guests to take action and support other conservation projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing able to go and work somewhere doing a lot of good and knowing that I can be a part of it, no matter what my role is, is wonderful,\u201d Fix said. She credits her CES major with not just giving her a background in animal care and conservation, but also helping her develop a broad perspective and being able to talk to people from different backgrounds. It comes in handy when she\u2019s explaining animal nutrition to the park\u2019s guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She hopes other students can find jobs that they love, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTake opportunities as they come,\u201d she advised. \u201c(It) may just be a volunteer opportunity, but you never know who you\u2019re going to meet or what it\u2019s going to lead to.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fix is grateful that hers led her to some wild adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
